I've had my D-100 for just over two months and have taken 4000+ images
in that time. With two batteries and the battery grip add-on, I would say I
am getting about the same amount of pictures per battery as you - at least
500 per charge per battery. For taking large numbers of photographs, the
D-100 battery is awesome.

My first digicam, an Olympus D-40 Zoom, ate batteries like a shark in
a feeding frenzy. My bag was weighed down with all the extra AA's I
had to carry. The D100, OTOH, is a welcomed relief. I just shoot and
shoot and shoot and the battery stays charged, ready to go. What a
difference....what a pleasure.
